Install A-pilla gauges or..
I was trying to see how you install 3 gauges into an A-pillar mount. I have a Boost, AEM wideband, A/F, and i suppose volt?? But also if anyone could give me an estimate for how much it usually costs for people to install these gauges, and if you could install it for me if your around the riverside/temecula area. thank you

I went with just boost and volt meter. I also mounted the dual steering pod on top of my steering wheel column. Depending on the brand will determine your price. The steering pod cost me $134 from Rexspeed.

DIY.
I installed AEM Digital Boost, OP, A/F Uego WB using the Lancershop A Pillar mount that goes over the stock plastic. Here it is:
As for the install here is what I did.
- i found a couple how to in the How To Section. Use those as a resource.
- AEM wires were too short so i had to extend them because I used the firewall in the passenger side
- as for the sensors, i had a shop install the bung for the A/F Uego WB on the downpipe. I paid $80 for that.
- for powersource, I used a Fuse Tap and replaced it to the Cruise Control slot in the fuse box.
- i could say it was a weekend project. it was my first time doing it too so yeah.
- another tip - i would use the a pillar that actually replaces the stock one because the wires behind the gauges get bulky.
i hope this helps op. have fun!

The gauges you want is very easy to install. I installed my gauges by myself. Just takes a lot of time. You gonna have to drill into the downpipe for the a/f gauge though. $75-100/hr is what the shops in my area charge, estimating turnaround time is 3-4 hrs.

The volt and boost seem easy enough, but the one question I can't figure out is WTF is the plug for
on the aem wideband? It came with a bung and a super long cord that splices off into 2 things: one is 2 wires yellow and red and two is a plug???
